Here’s a glimpse into what a typical day at our camp looks like, where nature and relaxation come together seamlessly.
06:00 – 09:00: Start Your Day with a Sunrise Safari
The Serengeti is best experienced in the early hours when the savannah comes alive with the sound of wildlife. Your day at Tamu Tamu begins early, with a sunrise game drive led by your expert guide. This exciting safari sets the tone for the rest of the day, where you might encounter everything from the majestic Big Five to the more elusive cheetahs and wild dogs.
For those who prefer a slightly slower start to the day, enjoy a leisurely breakfast at the camp, or if you’re eager to set off early, opt for a packed breakfast to take with you on the game drive. After your safari, you can return to the camp for a relaxed morning if you prefer a more laid-back pace. At Tamu Tamu, we believe it’s all about offering you the flexibility to enjoy your holiday your way.

If you’re staying at the camp for breakfast, take your time and savor every bite—because it’s your holiday, and the Serengeti is here to be enjoyed at your own pace.

After a morning of wildlife encounters, you’ll be ready for a delicious lunch. For those who return to the camp, enjoy a hot lunch freshly prepared by our talented chefs, served with sweeping views of the Serengeti.
If you prefer to stay out and explore, opt for a packed lunch. Whether you’re heading out on a game drive or going on a walking safari, our packed lunches provide the perfect fuel to keep you energized as you continue your Serengeti adventure.
